There I stood, all five eight of me, poolside at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, soaking wet in my retro bathing suit, holding a dry pair of tickets to the Emmys that night, in front of a gorgeous woman, and I didn’t know who I was, where I was, or why I was.

Over the course of the next few days I discovered I was a thirty-something Emmy winning writer-actor showrunning a popular sitcom, but I had to learn about that one detail at a time until my memory came back.

"La scatola di cuoio vissuto era sistemata da sempre su un cassettone di legno massiccio nello studio di don Pantaleo, a San Clemente. Dal giorno di Natale del 1968 aveva colpito la fantasia di Antonio Forini, trentasei anni, magro, un po’ curvo, quasi calvo, lenti spesse da miope, strampalato, “un tipo che, fra centomila lire e un portachiavi di metallo, sceglie il portachiavi, senza pensarci due volte”". Un’insolita favola nera sull’invidia, l’avidità e i più bassi sentimenti umani.

Alexander Pope was fiercely critical of writers whom he considered to have little talent and whom he liked to nominate as dunces. His most encyclopedic examination of these apostles of dullness is the Dunciad, a long satirical saga first published in a three-book version in 1728. A variorium edition followed shortly afterwards in 1729. In 1742, Pope added a fourth book, and a new, complete edition was published in 1743.
